Aufriihrorgan for with colors or the like. filled cylindrical

The invention relates to a stirring device for with colors or the like. > filled cylindrical containers, especially for touch-up pencils

for the repair of paintwork damage on motor vehicles, which as

There are Aufrührorgane known (DE-PS 11 61 795), which as ge ^ twisted piece of wire in the manner of a spiral compression spring |

are trained. Such Aufrührorgane have the disadvantage, § that they are typically made of spring steel allow müsseli 1 and an intensive mixing due to their shape only '& be_ repeated shaking of the container. The interpretation
must also always be made so that a certain wobbling movement of the spiral spring piece is possible, because otherwise in the

and the length of the piece of wire to pay attention to when tilting the agitator should be safely avoided.

Agitators of the type mentioned are also known (DE-OS 21 27 748), in which perforated discs or cross-shaped Parts offset from one another in the axial direction surround a tubular inner part. This creates an organ which covers large areas of the cross section of the container during the shaking movement in the axial direction. Is disadvantageous but that thereby also the resistance of the agitating organ against axial movement grows and that relatively large contact surfaces between the lowermost disc and arise at the bottom of the container, on which sticking with the pigments of the paint can occur. Then there is only a loosening still very difficult or no longer possible.

The invention is therefore based on the object of designing a stirring element of the type mentioned at the outset so that in all Intensive mixing occurs in areas of the container, even if the container is only shaken a little for the purpose of moving the agitator.

The invention consists in the features of claim 1. These Design allows simple production of the stirring element, for example as an injection-molded part made of plastic or from Metal. She gives "through the propeller-like looking webs Guaranteed excellent mixing, even with slight shaking. It is very beneficial if the outer edges of the webs lie on an imaginary cylinder, the diameter of which is slightly smaller than the inner diameter of the container, because this also means that the edge areas of the liquid provided in the container are already used once Moving the agitator up and down can be detected and not only through repeated tumbling movements of a agitator be mixed. It is also advantageous that those with the

The bottom of the container containing the paint comes into contact with the surface which essentially corresponds only to the end faces of the webs, can be kept very small. A sticking of the agitator is therefore not even if it is not used for a long time to fear.

It has proven to be sufficient and, in the sense just indicated, also to be advantageous if four shovel-shaped webs are provided, the two end faces of which are perpendicular to the pipe wall and are offset from one another in the circumferential direction. In this embodiment, flow channels can form between the blade-like webs, which then, if the length of the agitator is designed approximately so that half of the amount in the container is available for the axial movement of the agitator standing length corresponds, with a single shaking process a sufficient rotation of the agitator effect, which is converted into the desired mixing movement of the liquid. This new design of the agitator allows therefore a safe and flawless guidance of the agitator in the container, simple manufacture and excellent Mixing effect without the brush provided in the container! be damaged or touched by the moving agitator could.

The invention is shown in the drawing using an exemplary embodiment and explained in the following description. Show it:

Fig. 1 is a longitudinal section through a touch-up pen for repairing paint damage on motor vehicles, in which a inventive agitator is used and

FIG. 2 shows a perspective illustration of the stirring element provided in the touch-up pencil of FIG.

In Fig. 1 is in a cylindrical container 1 of a touch-up stick to repair paint damage on motor vehicles, a plug 2 is used, which is firmly attached to the upper edge of the

Beliälters 1 is connected. The plug 2 wears a External thread 3 on which a screw cap 4 is placed, which is designed in a known manner. This screw cap 4 has a conical approach 5, a brush 6 fixed in cLeni is jammed. She also owns, also in well-known Way, an inner cavity 7, the top by an additional Cap 8 is covered. In this cavity, for example, filler material or something else can be used for the repair work the paint damage 'required material must be used.

In the container 1 a stirring device 9 is used, which is used to stir up the paint in the container 1, before starting the repair work. This happens because the container 1 in the closed state in the axial direction is shaken back and forth, whereby the agitator 9 due to its inertia an axial movement within

'i, of the container 1 executes.

As can be seen in particular from FIG. 2, the stirring element 9 consists of a cylindrical tube. 10, on its scope Web 12 extending helically to the longitudinal axis 11 is provided are designed in the manner of the blades of a fan wheel. In the embodiment shown, there are four Web 12 provided, the upper end faces 13 each around 90 ° offset to each other on the circumference of the Eohres 1 are arranged, in such a way that they are with the upper end face 10a of the tube

10 lie in a radial plane that is perpendicular to the longitudinal axis

11 stands. The lower end faces 14, which are also aligned with the lower end face of the tube 10, are each to the associated upper end faces of each web offset by approximately 90 ° in the circumferential direction, so that the input cross-sections the flow channels formed between the webs 12 are each also offset by approximately 90 °. the Total length 1 of the tube 10 and the webs 12 is chosen so

that they are about one-third to one-half of the total in the container 1 for the axial movement of the agitator 9 available standing length L corresponds. Due to this configuration, a single shaking process may be sufficient to remove the The paint in the container 1 ″ can be mixed properly by the twist exerted by the agitator. It is of course possible also possible to employ the webs 12 at a smaller angle to the longitudinal axis 11, so that the end faces 13 and 14 of each web, for example, only about 45 ° or 60 ° to each other are offset. It is decisive that the webs should act in the manner of fan blades aui 'the paint color, when the stirring element 9 executes an axial movement - caused by the shaking of the container 1 - within the container 1.

The outer edges 15 of the webs 12 are in the embodiment on an imaginary cylinder, the diameter of which is slightly smaller than the inner diameter of the container 1. Through this the agitator can be properly guided within the container 1 without fear of damage to the brush 6 is. It is then also advantageous that the entire interior of the container 1 is shaken from the Swirl effect of the agitator 9 is detected, the interior of the tube 10 taking part in the mixing process in that in the interior of the tube 10, the lower end of the brush 6 moves relative to the tube 10. The new design therefore allows excellent mixing of the paint in container 1 when shaken.

The Aufrührorgan 9 can in a very simple manner as a single Part can be manufactured by injection molding. trouble do not occur in the shaping. Metal, for example cast zinc, or plastic can be used as the manufacturing material be used.
